Krystal Wade It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to. Cry if I want to. Cry if I want to. You would cry too if it (getting older) happened to you. I'm 28 again. I've lost track of how many times I've turned 28. :-)

I am writing a new series, The Book of Red series. My agent is currently shopping it around. I'm also working furiously on a horror/thriller, should be complete soon. And a scifi. Nothing releasing right now, but I'll probably have several in the near future.
